This project aims to support individuals living with cognitive impairments in Nottingham. Cognitive impairments can result from conditions such as traumatic brain injury, stroke, and dementia are more common in older populations. These conditions can lead to challenges with attention, memory and executive functions. Impairments of these cognitive functions can significantly impact individuals’ daily living activities, decreasing quality of life. This project seeks to use technological solutions as a flexible and cost-effective way to provide support where long-term support and monitoring are currently lacking.

This PhD will evaluate the needs of individuals through interviews, questionnaires and cognitive tests. Based on these insights, interventions will be developed and implemented together with their family/caregivers. By addressing the gaps in current support systems, this research aims to enhance the quality of life for individuals with cognitive impairments in Nottingham by enabling them to live safely at home for longer, reducing caregiver burden and the burden on support services.

This project has been co-created and is supported by researchers from Nottingham Trent University (NTU), the University of Nottingham (UoN) and partners at Nottingham University Hospitals Trust and Headway Nottingham. The successful candidate for this project will be enrolled at the University of Nottingham.
